Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Late 19th-century mirrors in this style feature dark stained wood finishes alongside silver leaf ornamentation, often influenced by French Louis Philippe and Victorian design aesthetics.

Frames were typically constructed from hardwoods such as beech or pine, coated in dark ebonised lacquer or stain, with molded gesso detailing overlaid with genuine silver leaf.

Authentic silver gilt exhibits natural tarnish or oxidisation over time, alongside visible leaf seam lines and subtle wear revealing the underlying gesso preparation layer.

Place the mirror above a contemporary mantelpiece or sideboard to create a focal point that bridges traditional period features with modern monochrome palettes.

Dust the frame gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, avoiding water, solvents, or abrasive polishes that can lift the delicate silver leaf or damage the ebonised finish.
